Okay, and can we give a shout-out to Tomo while we're at it? Hell, is it even open anymore? Years later, I still remember that magic sushi combo with the melt-in-your-mouth tofu teriyaki. It was the closest I ever came to a gastronomic orgasm.

This place can serve up a hot can of whoop-ass to Figueiredo's any day. I've yet to find the CBS Sound of Jazz program on the shelf at any other video store (don't look for it now, though - that was years ago when VHS was still in vogue, kiddies).

The first place I ever purchased Sierra Nevada Bigfoot Barleywine. And yet another reason I regret moving to SoCal - no strong ale or microbrews at the corner market!

It should be called the Arcata Transient Center. Anyone who's hopped on a Greyhound from here at 7:00 on a Saturday morning during spring break knows what I'm talking about.

Also specializes in patchouli-drenched drifters from points north accosting you for spare change near the kiosk at all hours of the day. But then, what place in downtown Arcata doesn't?

Every time I passed that statue, I'd think "turn your head and cough."

Besides Smug's, the best hangover cure in Arcata. I'd head over there bleary-eyed and cranky at 12ish on Sunday mornings, and a makeshift mimosa (a mini-bottle of Korbel served with a glass of O.J.), a Magic Shroom burger with a veggie patty and those delectable fries with a side of mayo for dipping set me right as rain.

I miss the days when the Brewery actually *was* a brewery - and the tofu burgers!

It still becomes a huge dump when discarded humans dump themselves and their stolen shopping carts full of belongings here, thinking that it's a place to live. Talk about your street rubble!

That's freedom to pee. (Public restrooms would be nice, but you're free to drink it too, if you insist.)
Writing about it here is freedom of speech.

I went here as a kid. Now it's closed. Doesn't that sum up my whimsical youth.
